To access the Administrative panel, make sure you have set the Access Control for the WHMCS Admin Group under WHMCS → Setup → Addon Modules → DNS Suite Management

Domain Search Dropdown (Top right)
In the Admin panel, you will find a Domain search bar on the top right of the Navigation menu. By default, the module will create a list of Active domains and make the domains select-able in the search/dropdown.
However, if Large DB exclusion is enabled in the Config then the module will not generate a list and you will have to enter the domain manually
Once you have the domain you want to manage, just click on Load.
System DNS Templates / Client DNS Templates (Professional Edition only)
You can manage the DNS templates using these two functions.
When creating a template, you can only use Alpha-numeric name.
Within a template, you can set the record as you would normally in a DNS zone. However, if you want the HOST value to be domain's host. Then use the @ sign as the host value. This will tell the module to replace the @ with the domain being applied to.
For example, if the domainabc.com is restoring the template with a A record of
@ 1.2.3.4
then the module will insert the following A record for the domain
domainabc.com. 1.2.3.4
The @ sign also work for the CNAME's value. As this is common for www. records to be a CNAME of the main domains
Domain Management Page
When a domain is loaded, you will be able to manage it's DNS, Web Redirect, Email Forward and Email Catch-all similar to the Client Area end.
Switch Nameservers
If the domain is not currently using the nameserver set in the Module's default nameservers. A notice will be shown allowing you to switch the domain's nameserver's to the default ones.
Reset Domain / Clear DNS Records
Reset Domain will allow you to clear all DNS records, Web Redirects, Emails Forwarding and Email catch-all and start from scratch.
Clear DNS Records will clear all the DNS records only. Leaving you a blank DNS zone
DNS Template Restore (Professional Edition Only)
